RP vs Teebo vs NI / IG88 vs STH
Hello All,
I am again seeking advice from those with more experience than I. I am coming to a point where my GW and Arena farms will be 7* and I need to move on to new characters. So far, I've farmed Sid, Savage, Lumi, and Phasma.
I like GW, I don't care much for arena. But, wouldn't mind picking up some firepower for arena either. RP looks awesome, but Teebo is fun to use and I hear Initiate gets pretty good as she gears up. On the arena farm side, I hear 88 is very powerful but his health is meh. Storm trooper Han looks fun to tinker with, but might have the same issue.
Any suggestions from anyone that has farmed all or most of these?

Yea, there is such mixed feedback on Han and 88 on the forum that I'm not sure where to go there
From what I've heard on the forums, 88 can kill your entire team. I wouldn't know though. I used him as an ally before I ever faced him, and knew that I could never let him move from then on... And I haven't yet.
She works best in an assist based squad as her base attack is powerful and she gains turn meter half the time she is called getting her to about 140 speed equivalent. (Still after Poe). So 1/4 times QG or GS will call RP 1 shot the toon then have RP go early where you do her special and gain foresight or expose.
Little squishy on defends and tough to gear.
Also lets you cheat in GW. I don't do this regularly because it's to time consuming but occasionally on a real bad node you find out where QGs assist comes from retreat, then put RP in that spot guaranteeing that the assist comes from RP killing your target.
If you have a GS as well you can put the GS in the QG spot and RP in the GS spot to take max advantage of turn meter gains. Seems like cheating to me so I don't do it until I'm reLly frustrated.
After that I'd go for RP with GW shipments.
GW has better options: if you're on a droid-heavy server, Dathcha would be excellent. I use both Poggle and Res Pilot in GW and Arena regularly and they're both great. Pilot is a great counter to Dooku - she can take most of his health with her special and then dodge his counter with her foresight.
Teebo: great for INT-Challenge, fun (but Risky) for GW Main-Team, very useful as switch-in-char in GW, if you need his Turnmeter-Remove and/or his Buff-Remove on an (single) opponent.
Nightsisters Initiate: is like a Tank without Taunt nor Turnmeter manipulation. Good as switch-in-char in GW, but useless in Arena.
The fixed payout times are the worst part of this game and makes it absolutely family-unfriendly.
NI - good for GW - cut down does bug damage but basic attack lacking. One of the highest healthy in the game but no utility. Best if you plan on running a NS team or I use her with Ahsoka lead (jedi +NS)
RP - just got her and she's gonna be awesome I reckon running with Han &/or Phasma
I haven't really used 88
She can inflict buff immunity.How is that "no utility"?

@Arube - who's is TR?
In game guild: TNR Uprising
I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help

Exactly that - great when it procs but it's not on her basic and is highly unreliable - it's not exactly the first reason you look at using her

This is a massive exhaggeration. RP hits 3.5k without critical and 6k with. Are you fighting a team of level 30 Darth mauls?
Once again, unless the entire team your facing has under 9k health, I don't see how it's possible. RP is at best, decent. She's too slow to make any difference.
Teebo is fun but I don't have him leveled up high enough to seriously give a solid opinion on arena. However I recently faced a maxed out Ewok team with a Teebo lead and it was complete chaos. I didn't know what hit me. So teamed up properly, he could be lethal.
That being said, I may stop using her once my Rey hits 6 or 7 stars. The Yoda/Rey synergy is probably too good to ignore. But she's at 4 stars and is still a long way off.
I'm not speaking out of my you know what, I have RP myself and use her in PvP.
If you're going to build a foresight team, might as well go all the way with a Dooku lead. I've wanted to try out a Yoda/Rey/RP team myself, but I'm missing two of the 3.
Special abilities/ unique seem to favor RP more than TR. Also, according to SWGOH Cantina, damage seems to be higher for RP. Care to elaborate why you think TR is better. Just started farming RP cos got tired of hoarding, might change to TR. Spare toons for later on...
Rey and Ahsoka are both being worked on as replacements for Sidious and either Luminara or RP. Going to play around with lineups once they're closer to being usable.

Skip to 1:40.
Not only is TR much tankier and faster, but his non-crit damage dealt from his second ability is a little higher than RP's second ability (granted he has armour pierce, so subtract 200), plus he gets the assist.
I also have a thing for Tuskens, I've been farming URoRRuR'R'R before I even started farming Rey.

Happy reading.
I see a girl when I look at the picture so I say she. Don't care of others see a guy though.
